That’s Fresh

It was miraculous. There was this wedding reception that I had the privilege of attending. It was a truly miraculous reception.

The Assistant and the Apprentice

No matter how much I read the Bible, I am no expert on it. There’s always a perspective someone shares that makes me sit and pay attention. We were gathering as we usually do round the home and sitting down conversing. I personally was very excited because there was this person that I admire a […]
